A simple spa resort in the late 1800s, Cilaos is a small town nestled inside a mountain crater called a cirque with fantastic views of the surrounding landscape, plus a small museum and thermal spas to occupy you after going on hikes through the area. Cilaos Spa is a new day spa, listed in Conde Nast Traveler Hot Spas 2008, "offers Le Sieste ($196): In a darkened room, guests recline in a large tub of hot water with floating rose petals. A muted voice and sounds drift through the water while an overhead light strip merges reds, purples, greens, and blues. Guests are asked to choose one of four immersions: Brazil, Turkey, Spain, or Central Asia. In the last, guests hear galloping horses, a drum beat, and a wailing shaman. It's kooky but refreshing." Massages $126. (close)
